Only one version of python works

Question

I have both python 3.3 and 2.7 installed on my computer. I am running windows 8.

For some reason only one version of python runs at a time — whichever is first in the path control panel > advanced settings.

If 3.3 is first in the path, 2.7 IDLE won't even open and vice versa. What should I do?

@e-sushi [IDLE](http://www.ai.uga.edu/mc/idle%5Cindex.html) is a Python IDE. — Elliott Frisch, Dec 27 '13 at 13:58
@ElliottFrisch Thanks for the heads-up. I wasn't sure on that one, which is why I asked instead of bluntly editing that too… good thing I didn't. ;) — e-sushi, Dec 27 '13 at 14:00
